HBS/Miniatures.com posted all of the entrants to the 19th Annual Creatin' Contest here: contests.miniatures.com. The MiniTown Loft Shell Kit lent itself to more modern designs. I bought a few kits, but sadly they are still in the boxes. Here are the top winners and below are some of my favorites.

Grand Prize Winner Kerry Norell "E 'Sea' Living Houseboat"

First Place Winner Lyssa Bowen "Mt. Ollopa Lodge" (I love the architecture, and man that landscaping!!)

These are my favorites from the "Honorable Mention" category

Hands down this is my absolute favorite and I really thought Cyd would have been in the top 5. Looking at the winners, I think landscape and background are the only areas to improve (both my weak points); quality of construction, craftsmanship, attention to detail and everything in this house is spot on. Totally #1 in my book.Cyd Raduchel "The Butteryfly House" (minimodpod.blogspot.com)

I just now saw this post. Thanks for the feature and shout out about Mt Ollopa. :) I love everything about that build and the landscaping has to be my favorite. Nothing like jamming to Pandora and gluing down moss! Ha!
